The theme is a simple one: never give up.
Piper (Teegarden) is a woman who breaks off from her parents' dream for her to work the family business the rest of her life. She has ideas for finding her own path, but the catch is she has no idea where to start.
This is the a peculiar film for Hallmark. The main character has no specific aspirations, no goals, no skills that she is aware of. She blindly goes to NYC and sublets an apartment, basically for free. She tries a dozen or so jobs and finally settles on a dream that was always right in front of her face.
I like this movie for the acting and the cityscape. The chemistry is nice, although I'd prefer something more to sink my teeth into. There are several unlikely circumstances that I will choose to ignore for the sake of enjoyment, but I must mention them. 1) The apartment would be so expensive she would need ten roommates to afford it. 2) Her art is just doodling? Nobody just doodles like that. Someone would have pointed out her talent years ago. 3) She lands so many jobs that anyone would basically give up an arm and leg for, and yet she just quits each on a whim. 4) Woke. Hallmark has gone headlong into wokeness, there is no turning back at this point. I think 2022 is the year they will look back and see this was the turning point that led to their decline and eventual ruin.
'Autumn in the City' is entertaining and has a good message. I like Teegarden a lot, and she is solid in this film.
